This salsa dancing video teaches you how to perform a simple Latin knot combination. Knot combinations are not hard, they just need to be executed with precision in order to not get tangled up in each others arms, unless that was your master plan all along!
We'd like to thank a new sponsor to our show, Burju Dance Shoes. Victor and Burju are the famous dancers from the company "Hacha y Machete". Be sure to check out her shoe collection, it is what Julie wears social dancing.
Practice tip
Practice the move in sections and keep the connection controlled and precise. Once the setup and transitions feel obvious, the pattern becomes much easier to use socially.
Why this helps on the social floor
Save the full version for moments when the floor and the partnership can support it, and use the cleanest section first.
Pocket Salsa App
